Today, more bad news just came in from Atlanta, GA which reports that former WBO Welterweight and Middle Champion Paul “The Punisher” Williams was involved in motorcycle accident and is most likely paralyzed from the waist down.
His Manager George Peterson told the local News 12 channel that Williams is scheduled for surgery this Wednesday.
Williams was schedule to face Mexican Saul Alvarez on Sept. 15 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas for WBC Light Middleweight title, a fight that would put his career back on track with a victory.
Sadly, Williams now faces a much tougher fight, a fight for his life and well being.
